(2011-04-24) | Yes, it's very likely. The site in total is ruined!
A translation attemp of the official description: 1886 museum inspection
National Museum, Danish Department., Danish Prehistory
W of Kagerup highway occur remains of a ruined tomb: against East a Standing Side Stone, which at the middle is 3 2/3' wide and tall and leans obliquely inwards; 5' West is therefore a ruptured Sidestone, and E. of this have stood a third sidestone; 6 ' away is a 5' long and 4 2/3 'wide capstone

Ruined vault, leaving a Leftover in NE and a cleaved off lower part of a stone in the SW, and immediately SE of these a large stone block, presumably lintel (the capstone). Conservation and protection worthy solely because of its Location in a Forest.
